He must join some ultra exclusive club with that wicket. Has anybody else taken 200 wickets and scored so many runs?

Yep. Well done to him. There's probably some way of checking how many else have done that on cricinfo... but I'll leave that to someone else.

Gary Sobers is the one...8032 runs and 236 wickets

I read the other day that Vettori got to 2000 runs and 200 wickets before Sobers.


But then, Danny is a specialist bowler and Sober got 236 wickets over his career...

If Danny makes 8000 runs over his test career I'll eat my straw legs.

Damn how many runs are we scoring off edges?

Hmm, well he'd need to play till hes like 55 at his current scoring rate...though it is increasing.

Not enough for my liking....we need at least another 200.

Just had a look at this game. If we are good enough we are a chance. The Test is there for the taking.

And Crusaders own you all

Another great session for New Zealand. Lost the skipper, but recovered well. Plenty of balls still beating the bat as this pitch continues to assist the seamers, even with the old ball. South Africa can't afford to lose this evening session as well.

Astle out for 45. Caught behind off Steyn.

 

[oz_fan]

Styris out caught and bolwed by Steyn for 44.
Steyn gets his third wicket.
NZ 182/5.

 

[alternative]

Steyn bowling quite well, would like to see if kallis gets few more overs..

 

[oz_fan]

Pollock picks up a wicket. McCullum gone for 5.

 

[aussie]

i don't know what you Kiwis think, but from what i have seen of McCullum he has the ability to make runs much more consistently that he does, i personally would be very frustrated in him not doing so..
